February 19, 2009

Friday-It does not feel like Friday and it feels like we were in the hospital forever. It was a long week. Now I just have to get him through a few more days of not eating.
The drs came in the morning and we got a bit of a scare. Cody was talking to them and there were about 6 of them and they were all around him and he remembered he had one of his 'seizure' episodes yesterday when we were down in the cafeteria. Similar situation with a bunch of people in the room. I was next to him so I was not looking at his face but I do recall he was kinda quiet at one point. I was very upset about this and I was worried about that awful virus coming back. We are thinking it may have been a result of the blood sugar dropping (this happened again this morning) and not of the virus. Or possible that his anti seizure medicine is not being absorbed. Levels were taken and an EEG was ordered. The neurologist came in and we discussed the EEG and decided he could wait until Tuesday or Thursday next week to get it. So this prolonged the day. Needless to say Cody was upset and thought we would have to stay. We left there at ummmmm 5pm, just in time for Friday night rush hour. It always works that way for us. It took us a nice long time to get home, around an hour and a half. We are both very tired and Cody went to bed pretty much when we got home. I had lots to do here and am just sitting down at 9:15 to relax. It is all me when we get home. I do the job of maybe 5 people here with an ounce of the training. It is a lot and very overwhelming. I got it all done and someday I will write it all down- a day in the life of Cody. I have to wait up till 11 to check his blood sugar. Hopefully all will remain uneventful and we can move ahead...really move ahead.
Casey graduates from ranger school on April 30th and I would love to be able to go there with Cody. I am once again, getting anxious about my job and not sure if I will go back. It is too much and we have not had a stretch of time where he has stayed stabile. We shall see.
Thanks for reading and have a good weekend...
